    Services are driving economies around the world. Recent global events have put into focus how service creation, delivery, and management can impact every facet of our lives. Enterprises are finding new ways to be more agile and adapt faster to the changing needs of the global services economy. These new ways include supporting a distributed, hybrid workforce, managing supply chains to fulfill demand, assessing risk, and meeting escalating, always-on customer and user expectations. Enterprise service management - ESM, solutions ensure that all facets within enterprise lines of business - LOBs, come together to work smoothly, reduce risk, and prevent points of failure. Everywhere. Every time. For every use.

    Enterprise service management - ESM, extends relevant IT service management - ITSM best practices and technologies to non-IT LOBs. The LOBs benefiting from ESM can span across human resources, customer service, workplace and facilities, security, and more. ESM can also unify leading-edge intelligence, automation, large language models, and ChatGPT.

    Your employees sit at the center of ESM success The ability of your enterprise to create and deliver superior employee experiences is based on the underlying ESM solution, and the breadth of the available digital employee experience - DEX solutions. DEX encompasses every aspect of your employees interaction with ESM technology, including quality, ease of use, accessibility, security, reliability, inclusivity, and more, all contributing to the end-user experience.

    ESM quality of experience is compromised when your employees face difficult-to-navigate internal channels of support, redundant and manual processes across LOBs, out-of-date information, cumbersome fulfillment workflow, and an inability to get back to work with minimal disruption. The adverse impact on the enterprise is low productivity, additional toil, and staff turnover. BMC Helix ESM solutions are designed to fuel employee productivity by empowering all of your employee, wherever they are, with the experiences they need for success and improved job satisfaction, including

    A transparent, seamless employee onboarding experience to accelerate time to value

    Utilize comprehensive IT service modules while addressing configuration database issues

    Reviewed on Apr 29, 2025
    Review provided by PeerSpot

    What is our primary use case?

    I use BMC Helix Enterprise Service Management  primarily for IT service management. It supports modules like incident management, change management, problem management, release management, and configuration management.

    What is most valuable?

    While I cannot provide very particular details about the most helpful features, I also use other tools like ServiceNow  and Jira  that have similar features. Some of the changes required are at the framework level, which may not be feasible to change immediately. Incorporating features available in ServiceNow  would greatly enhance BMC Helix Enterprise Service Management .

    What needs improvement?

    There are several areas where BMC Helix Enterprise Service Management could be improved. Currently, ServiceNow has an edge when it comes to the ease of discovering Configuration Items (CIs). In BMC Helix, there are issues with the Configuration Management  Database (CMDB ), such as duplicate entries and problems with reconciliation. The recently introduced dashboard tool in Helix, which replaced Smart Reporting , has several issues. Reporting  has been a consistent problem in BMC, and it would greatly benefit from enhancements.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been using BMC Helix Enterprise Service Management for about fifteen years now.

    What was my experience with deployment of the solution?

    I did encounter issues, but they were not overly complex. Overall, I would rate the complexity of the migration as medium.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    The stability of the solution could be improved, specifically in the area of the Configuration Management  Database (CMDB ), where there are issues with duplicate entries and reconciliation.

    How are customer service and support?

    The support of BMC is generally good and better compared to some competitors. However, there is room for improvement in new products like the dashboard tool.

    How would you rate customer service and support?

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    I previously used the older Remedy  solution before migrating to BMC Helix Enterprise Service Management.

    How was the initial setup?

    I migrated from an older Remedy  to Helix Remedy, which took around six to nine months. It wasn't extremely complex, but there were some issues during the migration.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    While I am not very sure about the pricing, I have heard that the license cost of BMC is relatively lower than its competitors.

    Which other solutions did I evaluate?

    Other solutions I work with include ServiceNow and Jira , which also have similar features.

    What other advice do I have?

    The decision to use BMC Helix Enterprise Service Management depends on the specific use case and requirements. Overall, I would recommend considering other tools if their features align better with organizational needs. I would rate the overall solution a 7 out of 10.

    Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

    Public Cloud

    If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
